I have the same j and the same problem.  I also
thought a Protuguese speaker might do well with the
C-a j but then I remebered the Brazilian pronunciation
of r as /x/ or something a bit softer and decided I'd
rather not hear that either.  I'd like to hear what an
Italian voice did with C-a stress.  I know they'd flub
the j's and I'd have to respell for them to get
several other sounds, but . . . A~HHH! What they
really need is a C-a voice!
